Is there a film genre which hasn't been done to death? If anything I'd say there has been a big shortage of gangster films over the last couple of decades. At least it isn't another superhero film.Is this a bit like all the bands of the 90s getting back together 20 years later. Have these mob films been done to death or can they just go on and on making them. As someone who's watched most Irish and Italian mob movies I think it will be hard to capture the spirit of the 80s and 90s ones. Let's see.
This and Joker are the only films I'm gagging to see this year. The trailers and cast have me hooked, I'll be genuinely saddened if this doesn't get a 4K UHD film release. I'm a huge Scorsese fan and haven't been disappointed yet.![]()
Heads up: I totally forgot that both Vue and Picturehouses won't be screening this due to the whole thing about a limited theatrical release. I would assume Cineworld and Odeon will do so...
Edit: turns out Cineworld aren't doing so either...
